Chapter 297: You’re So Cute
Xia Wanyuan turned her head slightly and saw Jun Shiling looking at her with a burning gaze.
Originally, the word “brother” was nothing strange in Xia Wanyuan’s understanding. It was like an older brother term, but when it came from Jun Shiling, it made her blush.
“Forget it if you don’t want to eat. I’m not the one who’s hungry anyway.” Xia Wanyuan threw the bread into Jun Shiling’s arms and leaned towards the window, pretending to be calm. However, her red earlobe exposed her unstable emotions.
“I’ll eat, okay? Sister Wanyuan.” Seeing Xia Wanyuan’s embarrassment, Jun Shiling’s smile widened. He tore open the packaging and ate slowly.
The words that were so normal in Wei Zimu’s mouth were said by Jun Shiling at this moment with an inexplicable lingering feeling, making one’s heart tingle.
“Don’t call me Sister Wanyuan.” Xia Wanyuan looked at Jun Shiling.
“Alright, then promise me that you won’t call him Brother in the future.” Jun Shiling slowly swallowed a mouthful of bread and glanced at Xia Wanyuan.
One day, I would hear Xia Wanyuan call me ‘Brother’.
“Deal.” Anyway, she did not plan to get along with those people from the Wei family. Wei Zimu was not her brother either, so she could not call him that.
Satisfied, Jun Shiling squeezed towards Xia Wanyuan. “How did you feel today?”
“There are many people and the food is delicious. Old Madam is quite smart.” Xia Wanyuan was concise.
“Remember to tell me before you come to the Wei family next time. After all, your appearance means that the Wei family has another person fighting for the inheritance. It’s better to be careful.”
“Got it.” Xia Wanyuan handed the milk to Jun Shiling. “Drink this.”
However, Jun Shiling did not take it. Instead, he looked at Xia Wanyuan with a burning gaze. “I signed too many documents. I’m exhausted.”
“.......”
Xia Wanyuan was speechless for a moment. Thinking of how Jun Shiling had taken the time to pick her up, her heart softened. She inserted the straw into the box and brought it to Jun Shiling’s mouth.
Jun Shiling lowered his head and took a sip from the straw, then looked at Xia Wanyuan with a deep gaze. “Do you want to try if the milk is sweet?”
You don’t have to do anything. As long as it’s you, I will like it.
The car fell silent for a moment, but only the people involved knew how turbulent it was.

“Mom, look how arrogant Xia Wanyuan was today. She made me feel embarrassed in front of so many people. My new gown was splashed with vegetable soup. Look!”
In the courtyard, Wei Yu was sitting beside Wei Xian with an aggrieved expression.
“Alright, who asked you to provoke her first? She’s just an actress. You’re the legitimate Third Miss of the Wei family. Why did you lower yourself to find trouble with her?”
“What do you think Grandma is thinking? Why did she get a lousy actress to sit at the same table as us? Could it be that Grandma wants her to enter the Wei family and share our assets?”
“I don’t know either. Your grandmother is too scheming, but I don’t think she paid any attention to Xia Wanyuan at tonight’s banquet.” Wei Xian had been paying attention to the Old Madam’s movements, but she could not tell what special care the Old Madam had for Xia Wanyuan.
“I don’t care, Mom. You have to help me. I was bullied by that Xia Wanyuan.”
“She’s just an actress. Just do whatever you want. Don’t disturb your grandmother.” Thinking of Xia Wanyuan’s cold eyes, Wei Xian inexplicably felt a little afraid. It was good to let Yu’er mess around. She wanted to see who that Xia Wanyuan was.

In the deep courtyard, Old Madam Wei sincerely offered incense to the ancestral tablet.
“Fengxian, I’m already old. Ever since you left, I’ve supported this huge Wei family alone. It’s a pity that the younger generation is useless. How many times have I wanted to look for you in the past few years? But when I thought that the Wei family would fail in my hands, I held on to my last breath. Fortunately...”
Halfway through her sentence, the old lady suddenly stopped talking. After a while, she looked up. “Old man, walk slowly. When I’ve arranged everything here, I’ll look for you.”
The moon was as cold as water as it quietly looked at the various states of the world.

The drama “The Long Ballad” had already entered the final stages. The regret and deep love between the Heavenly Spirit Princess and Qin Wu, who could not love, made many people unable to calm down.
As time passed, the role of the Heavenly Spirit Princess became more and more diverse, and everyone’s approval of Xia Wanyuan grew.
Taking advantage of this surge in popularity, the Ya Zi advertisement endorsed by Xia Wanyuan officially launched.
